    Love my watch 8 love the watch faces. I love when it vibrates on my arm when phone is out of reach. Love that it is connected to my phone so I can keep track of my steps, heart rate, weather,stress, battery life for watch and phone. Best watch for the money.

    I actually really like this watch for running. It's thinner than the others that Samsung offers and still offers most of the features that the others do. The only issue is the battery life is low enough that most will either need to charge it daily or every other day. Otherwise, the AI features and new health stats are more advanced than previous models

    It does have a lot good options and we can manage it through a decent app from phone. l like the way its work except battery and design is ok. The build quality is scratch proof. over all a good pick for the money, if your a android user especially samsung.

    This watch is truly the best! I had the lte version and did not care for it as much as i was not getting text messages from my phone. I decided to go ahead and purchase the bluetooth version because i have my phone on me anyways. Very light and do not even realize i have it on my wrist.

    The GW8 is a very comfortable! I was a little scuptical of the throwback design based on the Grear Sport design from 2017. However, its grown on me. I appreciate the new strap design and the manner to connect them is easy. Plus, I can use my older 22mm straps with it via an adaptor from Amazon.

    ​This watch excels at workout tracking and has impressive battery life. Even with the always-on display active for a day and a half, including an 8-hour workout, the battery didn't drop below 30%. However, the design is a bit of a letdown. I wish Samsung had committed to either a circular or a squared design with curved edges instead of the current hybrid approach.

    This watch is so much easier than before. The bands are easier to attach and remove. Gives you the options for larger images (which i need). All around great watch.

    Love it. I wear it everyday and it keeps me in check. Battery lasts me 2-3 days when im not playing with it so much. Got much more use out of it than apple watch. Gemini is great.
